No. I'm not campaigning to have bug lists available. I'm pointing out a fact, which is that the company's bug lists are not available for Magma, Maple, and Mathematica, but they are available for Matlab. I'm not campaigning to change this. The point of this thread was to ask for fact verification. > My claim is that > in practice this is not as useful as one might initially think.

I would be thrilled if Karim B. or Bill A. were to come to a Bug Days. Bill has attended Sage Days in the past, but I think Karim hasn't yet, though he has been invited.
